First things first, most rockets with solid pyrotechnic fuel do not use actual gunpowder, otherwise they would just blow up on the launch pad, they use a slightly different mixture of chemicals that burn (comparatively) slowly, enough to create enough force to propel the rocket forward but not to create an explosion. But for the most part solid fuel rocket engines have a higher power to weight ratio than just your average water rocket. bottle rockets (fireworks) use gunpowder

How much gunpowder does it take to fuel a rocket?
A rocket that's part of a pyrotechnic display out over the harbor on the 4th of July, that goes up a few hundred feet and then explodes and makes everybody go "ooooh", does its job on one or two ounces of gunpowder. A rocket that's built to lift a package of instruments into the stratosphere, or people and supplies to the International Space Station, is fueled with stuff that's much stronger than gunpowder -- often thermite or hydrazine.

What does a longer rocket do?

How many miles does a rocket go in a second?
The speed (the number of miles it goes in a second) canges as the rocket takes off. It starts slow and gets faster and faster into its flight.Did you mean the average speed to get into orbit? If so please ask this question specifically - WikiAnswers can not help when people are not very clear with their questions.
Do they have a report on what freezes faster water or sugar water?
Pure water freezes faster, although as anti-freeze goes, sugar is not one of the more potent. Try salt instead.

What will happen when heat is added to water that is room temp?
The water will get hotter. Its molecules will move faster, and the temperature goes up.
Does the shape of the nose on a rocket affect how high it goes?
If the nose is pointy, the rocket will go faster, but if the rocket's nose is flat, it will just travel slower in the lower atmosphere, the height a rocket attains depends on the efficiancy of its engines, the amount of propellant carried and the launch profile. However, for a subsonic rocket (which is what most hobby rockets are) then a curved on not a pointy one is much better. I would suggest looking it up on wikipedia.
